Description:
 Inspired by Greg Sheldons Get iPlayer GUI, I
decided to have a go at Kommander scripting. This
is my first attempt at putting something like this
together.

This version includes a proxy setting, the ability
to manage your Get iPlayer files, including a very
basic play and stop function that will generate
play-lists for ITV content if in parts. Live TV
and Radio tune in. Record Live streams for both
and the Mini Encoder.


At the moment the app depends on::

Get_iplayer(command line app)
FLVStreamer (bin file included)

both can be downloaded from :

http://linuxcentre.net/getiplayer/download/

Kommander 3.5.10
FFmpeg & FFPlay
mplayer
xterm
and various media players you may, or may not have
(only needed for playback)  


Make sure that executable is set within
permissions for FLVstreamer bin and ipdl.kmdr
files.

Point everything, under the settings tab of the
gui, to the right places. and save settings (will
make this automatic at some point)

** IF YOUR NOT GOING TO USE A PROXY MAKE SURE IT'S
TURNED OFF OR NOTHING WILL DOWNLOAD. **


Mandriva::

You'll need to make sure Kommander 3.5.10, ffmpeg,
mplayer and xterm are installed to your system.
Also you'll need to download the fedora RPM for
the commmand line tool and bin file for
FLVstreamer. To make sure update of plugin works
you could install sudo and add yourself as
sudoer.. or just update via Konsole using su and
then typing 'get_iplayer --update'.

Unfortunately the shebang is not recognised by
Mandriva straight off. Best bet is to create your
own starter (shortcut). 
To start the app from Konsole navigate to the
Get_Iplayer_GUI directory and type 'kmdr-executor
ipdl.kmdr'. Then head to settings and point
everything at the right places. Make sure
FLVstreamer bin file is executable (properties and
permissions of file)

example for Mandriva FLVstreamer setting in gui:

"/home/user/where_you_copied_direcory_to/./flvstreamer"

it needs to be in quotes

enjoy
